GoldenEye heading to Wii and DS

If you think you've read this story before, we can promise you haven't – it's just that rumours surrounding a possible resurrection of acclaimed N64 GoldenEye are nothing new.

However, this time things look a little more believable. Eurogamer claims to have it on good authority that Activision is planning to reveal a Wii and DS GoldenEye title at this month's E3.

It can't confirm whether or not it will be a remake of the cherished N64 original or not, but it does claim that development duties are being split between UK studio Eurocom and American outfit n-Space.

Way back in January 2008 it was reported that an Xbox Live Arcade version of GoldenEye was just weeks away from completion when the project was scrapped thanks to a dispute between Microsoft and Nintendo.

It was subsequently reported that the reason for the deal's collapse was Nintendo president Saturo Iwata's unease at the idea of a previously Nintendo-exclusive game appearing on a rival system – not that it stopped the likes of Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie and Conker's Bad Fur Day making the move to Xbox 360.Image credit: GoNintendo
